Abstract

The antagonists of the asymmetric conflict between Western democratic states - mostly members of the NATO - and the so called Islamic State (IS) differ in their legal status; their organizational structure and their strategic and tactical aims are diametrically opposed. Since the IS is inferior in organizational, technical, personal and financial terms to the Western democratic states, it uses asymmetric tactics to fight the liberal Western forms of government. This article examines selected asymmetric tactics of IS, for example the uncensored exhibition of unfathomable, archaic violence, and analyses its strategic, tactical and psychological functions. Additionally, the multiple terror scenarios and the key players, for example Islamist lone wolves and hit-teams, against Western democracies are examined.

The antagonists of the asymmetric conflict between Western democratic states - mostly members of the NATO - and the so called Islamic State (IS) differ in their legal status; their organizational structure and their strategic and tactical aims are diametrically opposed. Since the IS is inferior in organizational, technical, personal and financial terms to the Western democratic states, it uses asymmetric tactics to fight the liberal Western forms of government. This article examines selected asymmetric tactics of IS, for example the uncensored exhibition of unfathomable, archaic violence, and analyses its strategic, tactical and psychological functions. Additionally, the multiple terror scenarios and the key players, for example Islamist lone wolves and hit-teams, against Western democracies are examined.
